Dear Penn Community,
Your generosity during the holiday season has made a huge difference in the lives of many members of our community. We look forward to working with you again this year as we strive to make a difference in the lives of our many deserving neighbors.
Below is a list of current opportunities. Next month there will be a Coat Drive and the Penn Volunteers In Public Service
(PennVIPS) Adopt A Family for the Holidays Program.
These opportunities are special in that they are designed to bring joy during the holiday. I look forward to working with you as we strive to be good neighbors. Contact me at (215) 898-2020 or send an email to sammapp@pobox.upenn.edu for additional information and/or to volunteer.
Thank you for all you do.
—Isabel Mapp, Associate Director, Netter Center for Community Partnerships
Annual Holiday Food Drive: November 1-18
Let's take a bite out of hunger! In the season of Thanks and Giving, please contribute to the Annual Food Drive at the University coordinated by Penn VIPS. We are collecting non-perishable foods (cans and boxed foods) as well as turkeys (call ahead if donating a turkey). Donations will re-stock the pantry at Baring House and the People's Emergency Shelter as well as help many deserving families in the area.
